Chapter 638: Stormy Old Friends Come
The blue waves are rippling, fish are flying out of the sea, the sky reveals the tortuous coastline, and the earth is already in sight.
As for Gu Xiaosang's real purpose, Meng Qi was too lazy to guess, because there were too few relevant clues, and he couldn't even use them to deduce. He had no clue and wasted time. Moreover, Gu Yaonu was a bit mysterious, as if she knew a lot of things, and she could always take the lead or be just right, playing many strong people in the palm of her hand. The clues she gave and the messages she left were half true and half false. It was very easy to be misled and fall into a trap by random guesses.
Is it the same in reincarnation? I wonder if she has teammates, or is she still alone? What does the demon girl want to do? Meng Qi subconsciously thought of more things about Gu Xiaosang, but he didn't worry that she couldn't get out of trouble. With the demon girl's skills, it was more practical to worry about how Liu Shuyu would deal with the aftermath.
Since the Su Nu fairyland was not sealed for too long, Shang Shuixianzi and Guo Xi were still under temporary control, and with Liu Shuyu's cover and indirect influence, they did not expose the problem, but as I and Gu Xiaosang left, they would regain consciousness sooner or later. Guo Xi was okay, because he had awakened from the beginning to the end, and he knew nothing and understood nothing. There would be no trouble if he used a secret method to guide his memory.
But Shang Shuixianzi was an extremely skilled master, and her soul and body were equally powerful. After she recovered, she would not be able to detect any clues, and she would be able to tolerate multiple poor dual cultivation partners. Knowing that she reported her own abnormality, the contemporary Xuannv could immediately infer the cause and effect.
Of course, the hatred between me, Gu Xiaosang and Su Nu Dao was already very deep, and it didn't matter if it was exposed. I didn't take away the Overlord's Absolute Sword and the remains of the ancestor, so it didn't matter whether it was exposed or not. Anyway, now the sea is wide and the fish can jump, and the sky is wide and the birds can fly!
But for Liu Shuyu, this is a fatal problem that must be solved. After all, the descendant of Xuannv is not an irreplaceable "role"!
"I don't know what she will do..." Meng Qi frowned, and the four words "killing to silence" appeared in his mind. Not only Shangshui Fairy, but also Guo Xi, Liu Shuyu will eliminate them without leaving any hidden dangers.
Thinking of this, he was a little sad. Although Guo Xi was not killed by him, he died because of him. Unfortunately, he was almost unable to protect himself under heavy oppression before, so how could he care about others?
"After all, I am not a selfless hero..." Meng Qi sighed, adjusted his mood, stopped thinking about this matter, and didn't worry about how Liu Shuyu, whose cultivation was far lower than Shangshui Fairy, would deal with the aftermath. Who knows if Gu Xiaosang still has other means on Shangshui?
If she fails to deal with the aftermath, he will not have any mercy.
He turned to recall and savor the general outline, third and fourth swords of the two styles of "Nine Destructions of the Divine Sky" and the Six Slashes of the Overlord, especially the latter, which was of great help to his exploration and improvement of his swordsmanship. After all, the main body of the Nine Destructions of the Divine Sky is spearmanship. Although it can also be used for swordsmanship, it is still a layer apart.
"I have also gained some insights into the skills of the two swords of Immortal Gods and Buddhas' Nirvana, which can be used to improve my own swordsmanship." Meng Qi frowned suddenly in thought, "Killing on Lingshan, Buddhas' Nirvana, how can it be 'Lingshan'?"
As a time traveler, he had no doubt that Lingshan represented Buddhism, so he didn't notice anything wrong just now, but now thinking about it carefully, he found something wrong.
The Buddha of his own world is in the Pure Land of Possa, and Amitabha is in the Western Paradise. These two are the symbols of Buddhism, and Lingshan belongs to the world of Journey to the West. Why didn't the Overlord use the first two, but "Lingshan"?
"The Overlord is a legendary realm, the only one in all realms. Perhaps there are also legends in the Journey to the West world. It is reasonable to know the 'Spiritual Mountain', but why must he use the lesser-known 'Spiritual Mountain' instead of the 'Posha' that is widely known by the strong in his own world? This does not fit the Overlord's style of being domineering and fearless of anyone in the world." Meng Qi thought of many reasons, but they were all a bit far-fetched.
At this time, the endless land appeared. He restrained his thoughts and quietly lowered the escape light.
It has been a while since he went deep into the East China Sea. After entering the port, Meng Qi immediately inquired about the news, so as not to be targeted without knowing it.
In addition to the Blue Blood Man's incident, another thing was circulating in the restaurant:
"Yan Chong, the long river of sword energy, passed the thunder tribulation and ascended to heaven in one step!"
There were six people on the previous generation list who ascended to heaven in one step. This was the most heaven-defying scene since the list of people, which made many strong people smell the smell of changes in the world, the coming of the catastrophe, and the wind and clouds!
"Yan Chong survived a heavenly tribulation and ascended to heaven?" Hearing this news, Meng Qi was quite relieved. Yan Chong came from a small sect. Although he had some adventures, they were not outstanding. When he entered the top of the human list, many people thought that he could only become an outsider. However, he was frugal and self-reliant, and walked step by step. Even though he had to rely on power to obtain resources, skills and opportunities for enlightenment, he did not lose his original intention after all. He practiced hard and found his own way. He ascended to heaven in one step and could be expected to become a master in the future.
It can be called an inspirational legend in the world!
In the eyes of ordinary people in the world, Meng Qi had at least entered Shaolin and received inheritance. Later, he had a good foundation after struggling. In comparison, Yan Chong could better represent them. Practicing was difficult, the world was dangerous, and the road was thorny, but there was hope to move forward!
At least they could imagine that maybe in the future "I" could be like Yan Chong!
"It's not easy for him to get to this point. The effort and hard work he put in are probably better than He Jiu's. He is really respectable." Meng Qi turned around and left the restaurant, and he became interested. "I have to go and congratulate him."
When you are interested, go at night!
…………
Pengzhou Jingbo City faces the sea and is backed by Xiushan.
"Haichaomen" is a well-known sect in Jingbo, but it is only limited to Jingbo. It is not well-known in the martial arts world. It has never been filmed outside and has no treasures to suppress it. Such a sect may not even be comparable to many martial arts halls in Yedu!
However, today, there are many young men and women in the mountain gate of Haichaomen. They come from afar just to become a disciple, which is in sharp contrast to the deserted situation in the past. Several elders saw that there were many talented people inside, and they almost couldn't close their mouths.
And all this is because of Yan Chong, the first "No. 1 on the Human List" in the history of Jingbo City, the first film of Haichaomen, one of the few who ascended to heaven in one step, and a master is expected!
In the eyes of many people in the martial arts world, as long as Yan Chong can join a big force and has no lack of skills, he will be able to enter the Earth Ranking sooner or later. Judging from his past style of doing things, he is not pedantic in this regard, so it is better to come to Haichao Sect to become a disciple than to compete with geniuses in a big sect!
Yan Chong straddled a long sword on his waist, with his hands behind his back, watching this scene from afar, with a calm expression and a hint of smile. He was born and raised here, and he was happier to be able to carry forward the sect with his own strength than to become the direct descendant of a big sect.
"Young Master Yan."
"Elder Yan!"
"Big Brother!"
Seeing him passing by, the people who came to become disciples and the disciples of Haichao Sect all showed respect and greeted him. Yan Chong's junior brothers and sisters were so excited that their faces flushed, and they were proud of it.
Yan Chong nodded in return and smiled slightly, saying: "Dark clouds gather, and heavy rain falls. Everyone, please enter the hall first."
Summer rain always comes when it is said. The sky is already dark, water vapor condenses, and lightning flashes.
Yan Chong watched everyone enter the hall, and he walked with his hands behind his back towards his thatched cottage on the hillside, which was his place of meditation.
As soon as he stepped in, the sky suddenly brightened, a flash of lightning flashed, and thunder erupted.
Not long after, a strong wind blew, and heavy rain poured down. It became like night outside, and only the splashing water mist could be seen when the lightning flashed.
In the strong wind and heavy rain, the thatched cottage swayed and seemed to be taken away at any time, but Yan Chong had no worries at all. He sat on the chair and enjoyed such a "scenery" in a leisurely and peaceful state.
Since he decided to shoot outdoor scenes, he rarely relaxed like this.
Suddenly, he felt something in his heart, and looked out the window. He saw a man walking slowly up the mountain road in the heavy rain.
The man was wearing a black suit, with a long sword on his waist, a jar of wine in his right hand, and something wrapped in oil paper in his left hand. He had a handsome appearance and a heroic spirit.
He didn't hold an umbrella, nor did he release protective qi, but every drop of rain that fell on his hair, clothes, and skin slid down without a single drop of error, as if the force was completely offset, leaving no wet marks.
It was raining heavily, but he seemed to be walking in a warm and sunny day.
As he appeared, the thunder and lightning disappeared, and the darkness became even darker.
"I heard that Brother Yan had ascended to heaven in one step, and I was overjoyed. I brought a jar of good wine to congratulate you."
The wind and rain were strong, but they couldn't cover up Meng Qi's voice from afar.
As soon as he finished speaking, he appeared at the door.
"It's a great pleasure in life to have old friends come to visit in the wind and rain." Yan Chong smiled and opened the door.
Meng Qi didn't hesitate, and walked in boldly and unrestrainedly, unwrapped the oil paper package, revealing the braised beef, and Yan Chong took out two large bowls and filled them up.
"Cheers!" Meng Qi drank a bowl of wine in one gulp as a sign of respect, and Yan Chong was not far behind, like a whale swallowing water.
"Brother Yan has made great progress and has a bright future. Cheers!" Meng Qi poured another bowl and gulped it down.
Yan Chong was also full of enthusiasm. He drank it in big gulps before saying, "Since I was a child, I have envied other sects' external scenes and determined not to fall behind others. Today, I finally got what I wanted. Cheers!"
He did not hide his happiness.
After drinking the third bowl, he sighed, "We were both called the two swordsmen on the list. We wanted to compete with each other many times, but we always missed each other. Today, we meet again. Although we are both external scenes, the gap is huge. The competition has lost its meaning. Only the feeling of competition remains."
"I have been waiting for this sword for a long time. Finally, I have the opportunity to cut it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the sword on his waist suddenly rose up, and the handle automatically hit his palm.
Taking advantage of this momentum, he pulled upwards, and the long sword turned around Meng Qi. The wind and rain outside merged, forming a vortex column in the air that connected the sky and the earth, like a real dragon coiled, dark and gloomy, containing terrible power, merging with the sword's momentum.
Meng Qi smiled at Yan Chong, and his right hand was on the hilt of the sword without knowing when. The long sword appeared to be obviously solidified, as if it was still, which was very strange.
Clang!
The long sword was unsheathed, breaking through the restraints, from bottom to top, one static and one moving, giving birth to a brilliant sword light with both speed and power!
A few skills that Meng Qi learned from "Xian Shen Bi Yi"!
Dang!
The sword light was swung, and the vortex column in the air was divided into two parts, which quickly collapsed without affecting the wind and rain, and no one noticed.
Yan Chong sat upright, put away his sword, and exhaled: "Your swordsmanship is much better than mine."
If Meng Qi hadn't held back, his sword would have been broken.
Meng Qi's Tian Zhishang had long been put back into the scabbard, and he laughed: "Your sword is not a precious weapon, and your victory is not fair."
When he said this, he was particularly impressed by the difficulties of practicing for independent cultivators and small sects, and they didn't even have a precious weapon when they arrived at the outdoor scene.
"I'm collecting materials and nurturing it. After all, it has been with me for nearly ten years." Yan Chong smiled calmly, "Since the incident of the Tathagata Palm, you have appeared in Jiangdong once and have disappeared since then, which is not like the style of Kuang Dao."
"You should seize the time to practice." Meng Qi smiled, "So I have been ignorant of the affairs of the martial arts world."
"The most sensational thing in the martial arts world today is the incident of the Blue Blood Man, which makes people shudder and be extremely vigilant..." Yan Chong said slowly, "The second is that the Poison Hand Demon Lord has returned to the martial arts world, with unfathomable strength. It is said that he easily defeated the Soul Chaser Demon Lord without showing his Dharma image, and was treated as a master by the Su Nu Dao..."
After saying a lot, he said: "The Poison Hand Demon Lord has been listed on the blacklist by major sects and families, 99th."
Not on the ground list, advanced to the blacklist... Hearing others talk about his vest, Meng Qi felt quite complicated, a little proud and a little ashamed.
"In the case of the Blue Blood Man, there is a forensic master who is rumored to have the strength of a Grandmaster, but I don't know if there is a secret method to restrain the Blue Blood, and it is not recognized by the Six Gates for the time being." Yan Chong continued.
As he spoke, he lowered his voice: "The Ruan family secretly contacted many sects and families, and seemed to be interested in the Blue Blood."
Meng Qi frowned slightly. The Ruan family really cares about the Blue Blood.
